Trivia
By her account, Mira Nair was in Bombay, stuck in traffic on Marine Drive and in the midst of a movie-maker's equivalent of writer's block when she discovered the source of traffic was hundreds of women dressed in all white crossing the street. She was intrigued and she ditched her cab, followed these women with her DV camera and some time later, the Laughing Club of India was born. See more »
